Leftist Policies At Fault

Andrew Pollack, whose daughter, Willow, was murdered along with others, at the Stoneman Douglas High School, in Parkland, Florida. He rightly rejects the idea that anti-gun laws will, in any way, prevent such shootings, in the future. What will prevent them is actually PUNISHING students for their criminal acts instead of refusing to punish them to “reduce juvenile arrests.” You don’t “reduce crime” by refusing to punish the criminals. The shooter in Parkland PASSED a “background check” when he bought the gun he used in that massacre, because the school ignored previous criminal acts, so his record was clear, and he was able to pass that background check. Refusing to punish criminality among students to “reduce juvenile arrests” is a left-wing idea, and CONTRIBUTES to law-breaking, including mass shootings. Punishing student law-breakers is a good start, but allowing legally-armed teachers and other staff to bring their guns to school would be a good thing, too. But anti-gun fools will not hear of that, while they remain defenseless when somebody comes in and starts killing their students. Their ideas haven’t worked, so why not try something that WOULD?
